Nickey Z-28 Sold
FYI: This Nickey Z-28 was recently sold to a private collector in Iowa. Wouldn't this be a great addition to SCR9? I love this color.

Re: Nickey Z-28 Sold
Restored to stock appearance with Nickey mods: Doug's headers, Nickey Dyno-tuned kit, Nickey traction bars and Nickey tires/wheels. Those skinny, little traction bars that Nickey used are very wierd in appearance...but the real McCoy.
Nothing better than a Nickey modified Z-28 sitting among the cornfields of Iowa. Hee-haw ! ! !

What am I missing? This is a Z/28 to BBC conversion, but it doesn't have power brakes? It didn't come stock that way, did it? Steve

Re: Nickey Z-28 Sold
The disc brake setup was replaced by drums for weight-saving/racing reasons. Here's the writeup from Kevin's website:
[ QUOTE ] The 1969 Nickey Camaro you see here started life as a Z28. It is one of only two Nickey Z28’s to become 427 Camaros. This Camaro -- optioned with an L88 aluminum head 427, a Muncie M22 4-speed, and radio/heater delete -- was heavily modified for the drag strip. It comes complete with all the typical high performance accessories of the day: headers, Mallory ignition, traction bars, heavy-duty clutch, scattershield, flex fan, gauges, Sun tach, Hurst shifter, Hurst shocks, and Goodyear slicks mounted on SS Cragars. Many weight saving modifications were made as well: removal of window track mechanisms, the exchange of drum brakes in place of the disc brakes, in addition to having the “heater delete” option. [/ QUOTE ]

Re: Nickey Z-28 Sold
Ron put a lot of work into that Z 28...this guy won't have it long. The only thing better than a Z 28 in the cornfield would be if you were there with it Lazy Dick !!! Yee Ha!

Re: Nickey Z-28 Sold
Yes, one and the same. Formerly known as the "Prez"...president of the now defunct U.R.C.C.; That's Uncle Ron's Camaro Club. He disbanded the club...I was the only member!
 For that, you can bet when I start a club, he won't be invited. Having separate clubs and your own show(s) is the only way to fly.  But I will invite the new owner of this Nickey Z-28.
